Jaylen Waddle Posts a Down Week Before his Bye

Monday, November 17, 5:39 AM

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Jaylen Waddle has been emerging as a regular starter and high-end WR2 since the season-ending injury to Tyreek Hill (knee). He has clearly established himself as the top target in the Dolphins' passing game, and before Sunday, he had posted at least five catches in five of his previous six games. However, in Sunday morning's matchup in Madrid, he was held in check by the Commanders, catching just three passes for 52 yards. He still led he team in targets with seven and receiving yards with 52, but it was a quiet day for the offense aside from De'Von Achane, who had a big day and helped the team claim a 16-13 victory. The Dolphins have their bye week after their Spain trip and return to action in Week 13 against the Saints in what should be a good matchup for Waddle to bounce back.

Matthew Golden Limited Again on Thursday

Thursday, November 20, 9:24 PM

Green Bay Packers rookie first-round wide receiver Matthew Golden (shoulder, wrist) was limited for a second straight day due to shoulder and wrist injuries on Thursday, according to the team's official website. Golden sat out of the team's Week 10 game but returned in last week's win over the New York Giants to catch one of his three targets for 24 yards. The 22-year-old seems likely to be available this Sunday against the division-rival Minnesota Vikings, but he could draw a questionable designation going into that matchup if he can't upgrade to a full practice on Friday. Christian Watson (knee), Romeo Doubs (wrist), Dontayvion Wicks (calf), Savion Williams (foot), and Bo Melton (shoulder) are also on the injury report, but none of their injuries appear to be very serious. Golden, the 23rd overall pick in April, has struggled for any kind of consistency in his first year in the NFL, catching a total of 24 passes for 286 yards and no touchdowns on 32 targets in his first nine games.
